Fister does love his yard, but he would rather have it to himself, I think - although he did get along well with Pjevs when he lived there, except for chasing him out through the gate one time when he was two years old. Oh yes, in his younger days, he could be a bit of a bully.

Next week, workmen will be digging up the whole yard and I’m sure Fister will not like that! He will most likely sit in the window and superwise the work. LOL! So, I’ll let him down as much as I can until they start.

The stray who lives in the tool shed had four kittens around Easter, now she is pregnant again and about to burst. No wonder she was hissing at Fister.

She goes somewhere else to give birth, probably a school across the road. A few of us have searched but haven’t found them. I did see her in the churchyard last week, not far from John's grave. Will go and look for her there, again.

I called the shelter and also wrote to them last December and arranged to have her and her kittens trapped. Unfortunately, it’s kill shelter, so if the kittens are not socialized, they will be put to sleep, otherwise they will try to find homes for them. They did find homes for a few.

The shelter lady has been coming every few weeks to try to trap them, and only a few days ago she got the last “Easter” kitten. She claims it’s impossible to trap the mom. All I want is to have her sterilized and she could live in our yard with no problem. The thing is, it has been decided at a board-meeting that it’s not allowed to have cats (or dogs) in the yard.

Wish I had the money to open a no kill shelter.
